Your RIBS and Tri Tip are to die for (most especially the tri tip). I think the food was the reason I wanted a job here. It’s been almost 6 year and I stay not only because of the food, but also because of the people I work for and with. This place is an institution when it comes to BBQ. Ribs YUM!

On 10/23/2007 Stella Hacker wrote: I ordered Newport Rib Company food for most of my career at the City of Irvine and that means at least 20 years, because I just retired after 23 years there.I used NRC for work related events and excursions. Your food travelled with us to Charger Games, Angel and Dodger games where we were always the MOST popular tailgate party, Hollywood Bowl concerts and family camping excursions (over 100 participants each)to Death Valley, San Simeon,Pt Mugu, Anza Borrego and Morro Bay(cold packs we BBQ'd, everyone thought I was a fabulous cook). We've used your food for banquets, employee recognition luncheons, holiday parties and much more.In addition, I've ordered NRC food for home parties, picnics, funerals (cheered everyone up when they realized the luncheon was BBQ!) and sometimes just a meal for my husband and me when I was too busy to cook. I can wholeheartedly report that every meal was great! When special or last minute needs arose, the whole crew(Naples, CM, Ladera) was especially accomodating, sometimes going as far as preparing food the night before for early morning pick-up.Everytime I was assigned "food" for work related events, I received numerous calls from staff requesting Newport Rib. I'm a bit sad that I won't be regularly hauling your gigantic hot boxes around in my car anymore, but I'm very fortunate to have worked with your establishment. Outstanding customer service, consistently delicious food, huge portions and great prices make Newport Rib THE place to eat, order from or recommend to others. Thank you!!

Recently I was diagnosed with two different types of beast cancers. My life changed quite drastically for a very long period of time. For me it felt like forever. Your ribs were what I knew I would eat -- once I was well again. After four surgeries, a ton of chemo & radiation, my treatment finally has been completed. I was so sick for so long. I would dream about being well enough to sit down to a delicious meal of all of the Naples best!!! My husband would say, when your ready we will order one of everything your heart desires. Last night my husband suprised me & brought me a feast from you. It was every bit as delicious as I had had so long ago. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your dedication to the Art of Ribs. My treatment lasted for two and a half years. Currently I am in remission and busy taking it all in. I have missed the very special treats I used to take for granted. For me your ribs were my final reward! See you soon :) Thank you. Keep up the outstanding quality for all of us. Kindest regards, Susan -- P.S. Everyone goes out of their way to register complaints -- I thought I would take time to send a thanks!!!

The food was so good that we had at least 15 guests ask us where we got it from. Cami who delivered the food had it to us exactly an noon when we requested it arrive and she brought all the supplies as promised. Although I think we ordered too much food for our 60 guests, I'm quite happy about that because I've been eating the leftovers for a few weeks now. Thanks again for the wonderful food and keep up the great work. I would recommend you guys in a heartbeat!

I didn't want to stay and take my time because you were getting ready to treat your employees to their Christmas Party. I hope you had as good a time at your party as I did with the food you gave me. Keep up the good work.
